Summary

In this chapter, we learned about AWS RDS. We learned what database types are supported, how to deploy and connect to an RDS instance, and how to carry out some common maintenance and configuration tasks. We learned how to use both the AWS console and AWS CLI to interact with our databases.

During the AWS Certified Database – Specialty exam, your knowledge of RDS will be tested heavily with questions around troubleshooting, service limits, upgrade procedures, and sharing snapshots.

In the next chapter, we will learn about Aurora, which is a special version of RDS that was created by AWS. We will continue to use the knowledge we've learned in this chapter to interact with Aurora as it has many similarities to RDS.
